A Week Late, Isabella Has Arrived
March 12th, 2005 by Mark Rittman
Well,
in the end she was a week late, but this morning our second child, Isabella Ruby
Rittman, was born at the
Royal Sussex Hospital
in Brighton.
She’s arrived just after midday and weighed 6lbs 11.5ozs. Mum and baby are in
great health and getting a bit of a rest before coming home tomorrow. Scott’s
all excited about his new sister (or more likely, the new garage he’s getting
when she comes home(!)) and so far she’s done a lot of sleeping and had a couple
of feeds.
I’ve got a few days off work now and will probably be giving the weblog a
rest for a bit, as I’m sure we’re in for a few sleepless nights and priorities
will be a bit different for sometime now. Until then, that’s me signing off for
a while now, time for a bit of a rest, and I’ll be back in a couple of weeks.

Thanks everyone for all the best wishes! Mum and baby are well at the moment, Scott (our son) has quite taken to her, and on the first night home we got at least a few hours sleep!
Thanks again and no doubt I’ll be back again in a couple of weeks time.

Add my congrats to the ever-growing pile! A week late, huh? Some implementations just aren’t done until they’re right. And she looks very right! Best to you and yours.

Here you can get her a “daily Horoskop” (sorry, it is in German … but I really like their “full-grown Horoskop”, which is quite startling)

She looks fantastic. Congratulations. Now if you can just make it through the next 3 months………..

Thanks again for everyone who’s offered congratulations! Sorry that I haven’t been able to personally reply, but I’ve been banned from the PC for a while and only get a chance to check the net once in a while.
Baby and mum are doing well, so is Scott. I’m back at work now so hopefully will get back in the groove soon. Thanks again everyone, I’ll pass on best wishes to the family.
cheers
